Ever since I visited the Kalahari Gembokspark (now Kgalagadi) in the days of the Le Riche dynasty I have been intrigued by the mystical wild dogs which appear and then fade away for months even years over the red dunes. When I opened the mail to receive the new and updated version of Gus and Margie Mills' Arid Kalahari - A natural history Guide - I dived straight away into the section on wild dogs.
@goslowtravel27472 жыл бұрын
Gus and Margie have worked in the area for some 20 years and with impeccable credentials (Gus was founder of South African Wild Dog Advisory Group and served on a host of other environmental groups) if anyone knew the answer to the phantom wild dogs they should. Wild dogs are the rarest large carnivore in the arid Kalahari and the first to disappear in areas of low rainfall - where it dips to below 350mm. A marginal species, they were last recorded back in 1974 when eight settled in the Auob river bed near Twee Rivieren. In Feb 1975 they left the park heading for the farms to the south and within 24 hours two were shot and six returned to the park.
@goslowtravel27472 жыл бұрын
"Fearing that they might again leave the park with similar disastrous consequences we decided to try and catch them so they could be released near Nossob camp in the centre of the park. This operation was not successful. We lost one wild dog during the capture operation and when we released the remaining five the pack split up. Three were not seen again - two males remained in the area for only a few months before they too disappeared."
